Introduction to Green Woodworking Class

Have you always wanted to have a go at some woodworking projects but don't know where to start? This class will introduce you to the basic skills of green woodworking.

Build your confidence as you build some wood art with your experienced teacher. They are full of useful tips and tricks that will provide you with a good knowledge of how to work with wood. It's the perfect inspiration for beginners and improvers alike to get started on their own woodworking ideas.

Your teacher will help you select suitable timber and show you how to master the techniques of wood carving, cleaving and trimming. You will also learn how to shave wood on the shave horse and pole lathe.

There will be a quick break for lunch and plenty of breaks, with tea and coffee provided. We recommend you arrive about thirty minutes before the class starts to ensure everything runs smoothly.

We use only traditional hand tools such as Swedish carving axes, draw knives and froes. Health and safety talks will be included, so you know how to handle everything with care.

During this woodworking class, you will make your choice of:

• Garden dibbers.
• Rolling pin.
• Baseball bat.
• Rustic Mallet.

This makes for an excellent gift experience for those interested in wood DIY crafts and is even more fun with groups. Try it for a stag do, a team-building event or a birthday party.

Beginner-friendly.
 

• We will provide all materials you need.
• You will take home whatever wood project you make.
• Tea and coffees are provided.

• Lunch.
• Warm clothes and waterproofs. We work outside and mostly under a shelter but we want you to come prepared for all weather.

This would also be a lovely gift for her, gift for mum, anniversary gift or birthday gift.
